Sounds like things are really coming together. The tank and stand look awesome! Definitely need to see some updated pics. And really cant wait to see it wet!

I have the tank frank. Sorry guys been really busy this week getting married tomorrow and all. Thursday i get to spend most of the day working on the tank. Tearing down the old one and setting the new one in place.
 
Well I have been really thinking about adding a Reef brite LED strip to my sunpower t5 fixture. or picking up a LED fixture to give it a shot as well.

Other things in the works.... I have been doing some research on the sedra 9000 pump and will be doing some work for all your ASM g4 owners. I ll be using a WM s200 body but will be doing a spread on how to supercharge your sedra 9000.

We will see what happends but I am hoping to pick up a new ATB 840 1.5 deluxe with special little surprise as a pump. We will see what happends here in the next month or two.The sedra make over should start next week so keep an I out for it in the DIY thread.


I will be using all the rock from my 57g plus bought some eco rock from Bulk reef Supply and have put that in the sump of the frag tank to help seed it. The phosphates did spike when I put it in there. A water change and fresh GFO took care of that.

ok ok , Doesnt look much different but I ll go snap you all a pic.
 
Well here is a little update today. probably the last one for the day. :)

Ok I had a rock the had a hitchhiker on and I could never get it. Some type of worm I Eunicids I believe. So I took the rock out and broke it up t get it out. It was almost 16 inches all wrapped up in the rock....

I took a couple pics I ll post later. Old tank 95% drained and all coral and fish out.
 
Once again, Miracles comes through and they did an amazing job on both the tank and the wood packaging!

If this tank is anything like your 57, I'm sure we're in for a real treat! :)
 
ok pics I promised.

Here is the worm.

Looks good man! The slim oveflow makes a big difference. What kind of scape are you aiming for?
 
that is an insane worm! hahaha

I agree. I even showed the neighbors. lol they were like what is that !!!

Aquascaping I am planning on being somewhere minimal. Kind of a wall on one side tapered down and then a small little mound for the BTA to rest seperate from everyone else. we will see. you just never know.
 
You should've told the neighbors it was a baby Graboid (Tremors), but no worries you caught it and took care of it before they got out of control.

Yea Rob in your free time just swing by..... HA! I actually need a hand taking the old one out to drive way to get it cleaned up. But going to cork n cleaver tonight about 745 i think.
 
I stopped by and checked out the tank today. It's very nice and built well. The sump is alot bigger in person...enough room now to do some reviews on bigger skimmers.
